On a Bohr set analogue of Chowla's conjecture
Abstract
Let denote the Liouville function. We show that the logarithmic mean of is whenever are positive reals with irrational. We also show that for the logarithmic mean of has some nontrivial amount of cancellation, under certain rational independence assumptions on the real numbers . Our results for the Liouville function generalise to produce independence statements for general bounded real-valued multiplicative functions evaluated at Beatty sequences. These results answer the two-point case of a conjecture of Frantzikinakis (and provide some progress on the higher order cases), generalising a recent result of Crn\v{c}evi\'c--Hern\'andez--Rizk--Sereesuchart--Tao. As an ingredient in our proofs, we establish bounds for the logarithmic correlations of the Liouville function along Bohr sets.
